In the list of jobs I need to do in advance of this weekend's Festival, is one I always look forward to doing and that is the Menus. I must stress that I neither plan the menus nor do I cook them - both tasks would turn to disaster in my hands - but I do design and print the menu notices that appear around our main venue, the Marsden Mechanics Hall. It is my one chance to get creative : no committee decides the theme or plans the layout, I can do whatever I want. The pictures used in the posters are from the ones I took at the 2008 Festival. Here are three of the draft 2009 posters (I may still change them). And there are still another five to design.
You're going to be busy, I particularly like the Bass player.
ReplyDeleteWell, I can see from the bacon butties and hot beef teacakes, I am not in Ohio anymore.
ReplyDeleteThey're all good! Perhaps we could get your folk to come & plan menus & cook at next year's Council Mt Music Festival--food looks good too.
ReplyDeleteLike the designs. Now I am starting to doubt my choice in the Surrealist challenge.
ReplyDeleteBut no time to change my mind - all this talk of bacon butties has my stomach rumbling...
My stomach's rumbling and I don't even eat bacon! Sounds like a fun project, Alan. Perhaps you'll post the final menus for us to see...
ReplyDeleteYou are a very talented graphic designer. What program do you use for layouts?
ReplyDeleteA Tasty Menue!
ReplyDeleteThe bass player menu, yes. And a spot of chili and a taco sounds good right about now :P
ReplyDeletei am a wee bit hungry now...nice work.
